"Whatever your feelings about divining speech from ancestral voices, you don't have to take any of Homler's theories literally to recognize the power in these songs. Wherever they may have come from, they have the power to take the listener far beyond the limits of the known musical universe".

"At the same time, this isn't your college chum's avant garde/experimental record, one that you'll listen to for a semester and then ditch when it becomes evident that you don't/won't/can't understand it. Instead, this is a collection that allows you to discover the answers should you want to and rewards the seeking with billowy epiphanies that resonate long after the final notes have disappeared".

"En genudgivelse af performancekunstneren Anna Homler og musikeren Steve Moshiers fascinerende, hallucinatoriske, electro-shamanistiske og fabulerende album fra 1985 ... [Homler] selv mener, at sangene kan være tusinder af år gamle ... Ordene, hun synger, [er ikke] på noget kendt sprog, men kan lyde som et amalgam af ord fra både Afrika, Sydeuropa eller Balkan-landene - og andre gange blot som gutturale lyde fra et væsen mellem menneske og dyr. Alt sammen forløst i et elektronisk svuppende og blippende og dronende og summende univers, som virker som en helt naturlig habitat for disse glemte verbaliseringer eller - alt efter temperament - vrøvlevers".
